 Carefree because you're cared for! OS 8 brings a Secure Session that ensures apps respect your privacy and require your consent, a brand new Dock with productive multitasking and window management features, and empowers our diverse community through Inclusive Design. https://blog.elementary.io/os-8-available-now This month we finally merged in the System Settings GTK4 port and redesign! Plus we've got some news about our progress on the new Dock and its multitasking features, our progress on Wayland, and a keyboard shortcut settings change you might enjoy. Read ahead to find out all the details! On the international day against homophobia, biphobia, interphobia, and transphobia, we want to repeat loud and clear: Open source communities aren’t truly open unless we take a stand against hate 🏳️🌈  I wish you had not used such words like "homophobia..." to describe bigots. Phobia is medical condition which is "an anxiety disorder defined by a persistent and excessive fear of an object or situation" (American Psychiatric Association (2013)) Comparing bigots with people who actually have phobia is very disrespectful towards them. |

@elementary I love the clean and professional look and feel elementary OS brings to the Linux desktop 🤩 If you know me, that's very Chris of me, but I only wish it had a better name 😭 In all languages I know that use the Latin alphabet, proper nouns start with a capital letter! And one can add OS or Linux to the name anyway where it's not necessarily clear.
In contrast, I'm not a big fan of Ubuntu but at least it's not called ubuntuOS.
@elementary Very impressive work. Looking forward to trying out the Wayland session when it all lands over on Nix.

@elementary Congratulations on the release of OS 8! I have tried many times to enjoy Elementary OS on my ageing MacBook Pro and for whatever reason something just didn't work as well as it should. However OS 8, even at this early release seems solid and a joy to use! At last, a Distro that isn't Gnome or isn't KDE and returns to its own well deserved niche on Linux! Well done for all the hard work!
